About Ellen
Experience: 2 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
I have always felt that being over 65 meant that one is wiser, more interesting to be around because of one's life experiences and should keep as active as possible! I have assisted my own mom, who is 87 and quite active and interested, although slowing down, with keeping her independence. Although retired from teaching, my experience working with children with learning and other disabilities makes me very adaptable and capable of dealing with the changing and somewhat cantankerous behavior of the opposite age group! Similar skills of dealing with them apply- my ability to listen to what they would like, giving them 'choices', my sense of humor and my flexibility, along with caring for those in need make me an ideal candidate.
